Product Description
The 3M Cubitron 3 Fibre Disc 1182C revolutionizes metal grinding with re-engineered Precision-Shaped Grain technology. Designed for industrial-grade performance, this disc delivers 60% higher material removal than its predecessor (Cubitron II 982C) while maintaining fast cut rates. Ideal for both manual and automated grinding¡ªincluding robotic weld grinding¡ªit reduces vibration and increases productivity through longer disc life and fewer changeovers.
Key Benefits
– Faster Cutting: 51% faster initial cut and 61% faster sustained cutting action
– Longer Life: Sharp grains maintain performance, completing more parts per disc
– Cool Operation: Reduced pressure minimizes heat buildup and workpiece discoloration
– Durable Construction: Tear-resistant fibre backing handles high-pressure weld grinding
– Versatile Use: Compatible with 3M Disc Pad Face Plates (sold separately) for wet/dry applications
Applications
– Heavy-duty weld grinding
– Carbon steel fabrication
– Robotic automation systems
– Manual metal finishing
– Industrial maintenance
Performance Test Results
Independent testing confirms: 60% higher stock removal vs. 3M Cubitron II 982C, with 40% fewer disc changes in high-volume production environments. Triangular grains self-sharpen during use, ensuring consistent performance from first cut to disc depletion.
Quality Assurance
3M’s rigorous manufacturing standards ensure each disc meets ISO 9001 quality requirements. The precision-shaped ceramic grain technology is backed by decades of 3M abrasive innovation, delivering reliable results in critical industrial applications.
Differentiation
Unlike conventional abrasive discs, Cubitron 3’s geometric grain design maintains cutting efficiency throughout the disc life, eliminating the performance drop-off common with traditional abrasives. This results in lower per-part grinding costs and higher throughput.
